Starting off with BarCampOhio - the wiki is at least up, I haven’t done anything for this yet. Still trying to feel this one out. I’m reading up on best practices and we’ll see what happens. Anyone that would like to participate should go to barcamp.org/BarCampOhio

On Commenting
Most of my blog readers are, well, readers, not participants and not commenters. That’s fine, but if you’re also a blogger you should comment. I have a new policy on the site: anyone who comments and links to their blog gains me as a reader. I upgraded WordPress and K2 the other day, which led to me loosing some style info and then eventually changing all of the style and updating some options - while I was at it I put my new blog reading policy in place. I’m only one reader, but if you write well enough I may just throw some links your way.
Speaking of me reading blogs…
I decided that part of MyStuff monday (still playing with the format) will be me linking to new blogs I’ve subscribed to or ones I’ve stopped reading. For this week:
In:
A Sack of Seattle
Center Networks
David Beach’s blog
Korea Crunch
Marketing Profs
Somewhat Frank
Tell Ten Friends
Out:
GigaOm
Actually an unusual week, I don’t normally add this many blogs in a week. I’m guessing some of these won’t be around long.

Thanks for the link - I hope you like CenterNetworks - I am really trying hard to make it a place to help people with their web apps - not so much from a coding standpoint but from everything-else standpoint
And might I ask why Giga is out?

Allen - keep up the good work so far CenterNetworks is pretty enjoyable, you’ve been able to get some great content already.
Giga is out because I have a very limited amount of time - I try to stay away from blogs with a certain number of posts per day. I know if a story is important enough on Giga Om it will show up elsewhere quickly - I’ll still get the best posts but don’t have to go through all of them.

Josh - your point is exactly why CN will not be another mashable/tc/giga type site - and those sites really don’t help you make better choices with your web apps. Which is where I hope CN heads.
I would love to have you write on CN if you are interested sometime!

Hey Josh,
Thanks a lot for subscribing, and giving me a plug here. Don’t be a stranger, I invite you to chime in with your feedback and opinion over at my blog as well.
Cheers!
